PRTNG #68-The-Lost-Keys

Original Episode
>Jane Mitchell\Orange Lightspeed Ranger character created by Jane Chen “Lightspeed Rescue1“ on RangerBoard.
----------------------------------------------------
EXT.-MARINER BAY-PARK-DAY
[A young woman with blonde hair is seen wearing an orange and white soccer jersey with “TEAM HEROES” on the front, and the word “MITCHELL” over the number ten on the back. The soccer playing Forward is putting her orange towel into an orange duffel-bag, and zips it closed. She then arrives at a black sport utility vehicle with the Lightspeed logo on the door. Once she gets into the vehicle, a familiar warble is heard.]

JANE MITCHELL:
This is Jane Mitchell, go ahead?

voice of CAPTAIN WILLIAM MITCHELL:
Report to the Aquabase...I have a special mission for you.

JANE MITCHELL:
On my way, father.

INT.-MARINER BAY-GALLEON-MAIN ROOM-DAY
[The ship, on it’s way home to Angel Grove, arrives over the city of Mariner Bay. Paco is still not sure if he want to fully join the crew.]

KIERAN OLIVER:
Mariner Bay. This city was protected from the demons by the rangers or Lightspeed Rescue.

INT.-MARINER BAY-HARBOR-AQUABASE-DAY
[The vehicle driven by Jane ends up in a parking garage-like area. Jane gets out with her stuff, and gets into an elevator. She is then seen exiting a door wearing a Lightspeed officer’s uniform (similar to one seen worn on her sister, Dana).

LIGHTSPEED OFFICER:
Did you win today?

JANE MITCHELL:
Yeah...they put me at forward.

[Jane then puts on a white identification badge, with a white number eight inside of an orange starburst shape. She then walks into Rescue Ops, and Captain Mitchell’s office. Once inside, the commander of the base talks to his youngest child.]

Father!

CAPTAIN WILLIAM MITCHELL:
Did you do good today?

JANE MITCHELL:
Two goals. What’s up?

CAPTAIN WILLIAM MITCHELL:
I need you to bring me the Hero Rangers. I have something for them that they can use.

JANE MITCHELL:
What is it?

CAPTAIN WILLIAM MITCHELL:
(showing his daughter a small silver case, opens it to reveal)
Twenty-four Power Keys...including yours.

JANE MITCHELL:
So that’s what happened to my ranger powers after that huge battle.

CAPTAIN WILLIAM MITCHELL:
I have been assured by Doctor Thomas Oliver in Angel Grove, that they powers may be able to be restored soon, but for now, the Hero Rangers can use them.

EXT.-MARINER BAY-AQUABASE-ACCESS GATE-DAY
[The Lightspeed Rover departs the Aquabase, with Jane driving. Seeing her leave, a lone Foiler, disguised as a human man (then changes back) picks up a piece of paper which flew out of the vehicle. The paper says “get the heroes, to give them keys.”’

INT.-OUTER SPACE-STAMPEDER-BRIDGE-DAY
[The Foiler reports to King Monarchius and the two generals.]

KYATSU:
(plotting)
I want to kidnap that girl, and hold her for ransom, which will be all of the rangers’ Power Keys! If we have all of those keys, then the rangers won’t be able to change forms!

KING MONARCHIUS:
I like that idea...go with it!

EXT.-MARINER BAY-PARK-DAY
[Jane drives the Lightspeed Rover in the park’s streets. Suddenly, two Red Scurvies and a platoon of Foilers block Jane’s path. After stopping the humvee, Jane steps out of the vehicle.]

JANE MITCHELL:
What are you guys!?

[Jane prepares herself for a fight as the galleon flies over, and stops. The six crewmen repel down the drag chains, and join Jane’s side.]

Rangers?

COLIN SCOTT:
Yeah.

[The two Red Scurvies then summon the regular Scurvies to keep the others busy.]

JANE MITCHELL:
I’m Jane Mitchell from Lightspeed Rescue...my father wanted my to come and get you guys to give you two dozen Power Keys.

COLIN SCOTT:
Can’t talk now...time to go to work.

ALL CREWMEN:
It’s Morphin’ Time!

[The suits “fully-form” over the bodies of the six.]

ALL RANGERS:
(posing)
Heroes Setting Sail For Adventure! Power Rangers, hya!

[The rangers charge in with their weapons to battle the Scurvies and Foilers. While the rangers are busy, the two Red Scurvies walk past, and toward Jane. She tries to put up a fight, and is able to get a few punches and kicks in, but is easily overpowered, and captured. Soon, all the the minions are then defeated by the rangers. Upon de-morphing, the crew discovers that Jane is missing.]

DeANDRE TAYLOR:
Where’d she go?

NIKKI BUCHANAN:
She’s been captured!

[The six investigate the Lightspeed Rover, and get in. Colin uses the vehicle’s radio, and calls in.]

COLIN SCOTT:
Come in...Lightspeed?

voice of CAPTAIN WILLIAM MITCHELL:
This is Captain William Mitchell of Lightspeed Rescue. Who is this?

COLIN SCOTT:
My name is Colin Scott. One of your officers was just captured by two minion soldiers of the Zangyu Empire.

voice of CAPTAIN WILLIAM MITCHELL:
Strap in. We will control the rover to return. I do have something to give to you. Enjoy the ride.

[The vehicle starts up as everyone fastens their seatbelts, and the humvee departs. A few minutes later, the vehicle approaches the access tunnel entrance, and enters the vehicle tube.]

INT.-MARINER BAY-HARBOR-AQUABASE-DAY
[The Lightspeed Rover enters the Tech Lab. The six crewmen exit the vehicle, and are met by a Lightspeed officer.]

LIGHTSPEED OFFICER:
Welcome to the Lightspeed Aquabase. I will take you to see the Captain. He is waiting for you.

[The group of seven enters the conference room, just off of Rescue Ops., and the six sit in the chairs around the table. The officer departs as Captain Mitchell enters.]

CAPTAIN WILLIAM MITCHELL:
Welcome. I am Captain William Mitchell. I had my daughter Jane go to seek you guys out...but this will have to make do. In this case are twenty-four Power Keys, that have been in the possession of Lightspeed for just over a year now. They were found within the city limits of Mariner Bay.

[Captain Mitchell opens the case to reveal each of the twenty-four keys, placed carefully in molded foam.]

I was going to send you all back to your normal lives...but I now need you to do something for me. Rescue Jane.for me.

NIKKI BUCHANAN:
I had met your other daughter, Dana a few months ago. I owe her one. We will rescue Jane for you.

[The Captain has a look of relief on his face. Just then, a tech enters the room.]

TECH:
Captain Mitchell, sir! We have located Jane’s communicator signal.

CAPTAIN WILLIAM MITCHELL:
Awesome! Rangers! You have full access to the Lightspeed Rover.

[The six galleon crewmen depart the base with their newly acquired Power Keys in the rover.]

EXT.-MARINER BAY-OLD QUARRY-DAY
[Expecting the galleon to fly over, the Zangyu do not expect the six crewmen to come speeding in with the Lightspeed Rover. The six exit the vehicle, and see Jane tied up with rope and steel chains to a post. The Red Scurvies summon the regular Scurvies and Foilers to keep the six crewmen busy.]

COLIN SCOTT:
(sarcastically)
Great! The welcoming committee!

ALL CREWMEN:
It’s Morphin’ Time!

[The suits “fully-form” over the bodies of the six.]

ALL RANGERS:
(posing)
Heroes Setting Sail For Adventure! Power Rangers, hya!

[The rangers charge in with their weapons to battle the Scurvies and Foilers. The six rangers put up a fierce battle, but feel the need to use the new Power Keys.]

PINK HERO RANGER:
We have twenty-four new Power Keys...

RED HERO RANGER:
...Let’s put them to good use!

[The six use their first set of new keys [R>B>Y>G>P>S] (Phantom Ranger, Shark Jungle Ranger, Auric, Green Light Ranger, Jenji, and Titanium Lightspeed Ranger). They use their weapons and attacks to defeat a group of Foilers. The six then utilize their second set of keys (Demon Hunter, Cobalt Sky Ranger, Gold SPD Ranger, Green Jet Ranger, GT, and Bat Jungle Ranger), and use the weapons and attack maneuvers to defeat more Foilers. The six rangers then utilize their third set of newly acquired Power Keys (Orange Lightspeed Ranger, Cyan RailMax Ranger, Orange SPD Ranger, Elephant Jungle Ranger, White RailMax Ranger, and Nova SPD Ranger), and use the weapons and attack maneuvers to defeat more Foilers. The six use the fourth and final set of Power Keys (Crimson RailMax Ranger, Hyperbot, Orange Defender Ranger, Green Star Ranger, Lumina, and Silver Kendo Ranger), and use the weapons and attack maneuvers to defeat the rest of the Foilers, leaving the Scurvies and Red Scurvies. The six rangers then revert back to their Hero Ranger forms. The Pink and Yellow Rangers go to free Jane from her confines. The Red Ranger then hands Jane the Orange Lightspeed Ranger Power Key.]

Here...you may need this again.

JANE MITCHELL:
(absorbing the powers)
Thanks.

RED HERO RANGER:
Let’s all use the Lightspeed Keys!

[The rangers insert their Lightspeed Keys into the morphers, and transform into Lightspeed Rangers (with the Silver Hero Ranger changing-up into the Titanium Lightspeed Ranger, and Jane morphing into the Orange Lightspeed Ranger).]

ALL RANGERS:
Lightspeed Rescue!

ALL LIGHTSPEED RANGERS:
Power Rangers! Rescue Ready!

[The seven Lightspeed Rangers utilize their weapons (RescueBird, Titanium Axe\Blaster, and a Thermo Blaster) on the Red Scurvies in a combined blast. The seven then pose victoriously as the two cackle in red energy bolts, collapse, and explode. The six main rangers power down into their Hero Ranger forms, as the Orange Ranger demorphs all the way down.

JANE MITCHELL:
Here. Take it. I will get to safety. I bet they’re gonna grow...and I do not have a zord.

[Jane gets to safety as twin pink beams hit the two minions to make them revive and enlarge. The Red Ranger grabs his Hero Morpher, and presses “5-5-0-1-*” to summon the galleon. The galleon arrives, and drops the drag chains to pick up the core rangers. The Powerzords are deployed, and quickly form the Hero Megazord. The Silver Ranger places the Quantum Time Force Ranger Power Key into the Hero Caller, closes the cover, and presses “0-0-0-*” to summon the Tri-Legend from the future, leaps up into it’s cockpit, and immediately forms the Tri-Legend Megazord. Both then immediately combine with the Nitro Eaglezord to form the Heroic Legend Ultrazord. The rangers insert the Morphing Master keys into their consoles, summoning the Mystic Dragon, Delta Runner One, Lion Wildzord, and Minizord. Then, Eagle, and the Tri-Legend separate from the Hero Megazord. A new combination starts to form.. The Mystic Dragon pops out of the arm and chest hatches as the legs detach from the megazord as it lands on Eagle, which lands on the Lion Wildzord. The Tri-Legend Megazord bends over, and attaches onto the back of the Lion Wildzord. The Minizord attaches onto the left side as a cannon battery. Delta Runner One then lands on the robot’s left shoulder as the right hand grabs onto the dual-bladed weapon, the Kendo Naginata. Jokia stares at the massive combination.]

ALL RANGERS:
Heroic Legend...Gigazord!

[The massive robot moves towards the Red Scurvies like a chariot. The rangers turn the keys to execute the finisher.]

RED HERO RANGER:
Let’s finish this once and for all!

ALL RANGERS:
Heroic Giga Wave!

[The two Red Scurvies are struck by the massive blast of energy, and cackle in multi-colored energy bolts. They collapse and explode. The six Hero Rangers celebrate in the cockpit as the robot poses victoriously. Jane comes out into the open as a black sport utility vehicle approaches. Exiting the vehicle is Captain Mitchell.]

JANE MITCHELL:
Father!

[The six crewmen and Paco join the two Lightspeed officers, and the group of nine talk. Paco is still not sure about joining the galleon crew.]

CAPTAIN WILLIAM MITCHELL:
Well...we do have an opening at Lightspeed. You will be serving the people of Mariner Bay.

[A few minutes later, the crewmen watch the two Lightspeed vehicles (with Paco riding in the Lightspeed Rover next to Jane) depart the quarry.]

COLIN SCOTT:
Well, he’s off to do bigger and better things with Lightspeed. Let’s go, guys.

[The six crewmen board the galleon, and depart Mariner Bay as well.]

INT.-CITY-GALLEON-MAIN ROOM-NIGHT
[Colin starts talking to Paco.]

COLIN SCOTT:
Hello, Paco. You have what we want, and we have what you want. Let’s end this once and for all! Let’s meet in the old quarry outside of town.

[After hearing the reply, Colin hangs up the morpher.]

It’s on!

EXT.-OLD QUARRY-DAY
[Paco and Primus wait for the galleon crew. The ship flies over, and the crew repels down the drag-chains.]

PACO GAMEZ:
Welcome to your destruction!

ALL CREWMEN:
It’s Morphin’ Time!

[The suits “fully-form” over the bodies of the six.]

ALL RANGERS:
(posing)
Heroes Setting Sail For Adventure! Power Rangers, hya!

[The Red Ranger grabs his Hero Morpher, and presses “5-5-0-1-*” to summon the galleon. The galleon arrives, and drops the drag chains to pick up the core rangers. The Powerzords are deployed, and quickly form the Hero Megazord. The Silver Ranger places the Quantum Time Force Ranger Power Key into the Hero Caller, closes the cover, and presses “0-0-0-*” to summon the Tri-Legend from the future, leaps up into it’s cockpit, and immediately forms the Tri-Legend Megazord. ‭The core five rangers insert the Mystic Ranger keys into their control panels, and turn them. The wheel on the back of the robot spins to make the megazord "open up." Parts of the Mystic Dragon come out of each port.]

‭ALL RANGERS:
Hero Megazord,‭ Mystic Mode! Mystic Bind!

‭[The megazord releases the dragon again to fly around the two droids three times to destroy them before returning to the megazord. The droids cackle in red energy bolts, then collapse and explode behind a posing megazord. The rangers exit their zords, and notice Paco shooting his blaster at Primus, who leaves the area as the space monkey drops to the ground. Feeling sorry for the monkey, the Red Ranger decides to take her in, and help her out.]

‭INT.-CITY-GALLEON-MAIN ROOM-DAY
‭[The crew helps bandage-up Primus, and makes sure she is comfortable. What the crew doesn’t know, is that Primus was assigned by Paco to steal the Power Key chest. The crew showers the space monkey with a lot of kindness...something that Paco never has done.]

‭voice of PACO GAMEZ:
‭Hello, rangers...I want Primus back!

‭COLIN SCOTT:
‭After the way you treat her!?

‭[During all of the chaos, Primus takes the chest, and heads back to the old quarry, with the crew following.]

‭EXT.-OLD QUARRY-DAY
‭[Primus hands the chest to Paco, who opens it.]

‭PACO GAMEZ:
‭What!?

‭COLIN SCOTT:
‭Surprise!

‭PACO GAMEZ:
‭You said that you had the chest!

‭[Paco transforms into Jokia, then pulls out a switch-trigger controller, and presses the button. Colin insta-morphs into the Red Ranger, and goes in to block Primus...what he doesn’t know it that Primus’ armor is really a bomb.]

‭RED HERO RANGER:
‭Jokia! No!

‭[The bomb blows, destroying Primus, and severely injuring Colin, who collapses to the ground in pain, but he is able to teleport back to the galleon to seek treatment.]

‭DeANDRE TAYLOR:
‭(angered)
‭Why, you!

‭ALL CREWMEN:
It’s Morphin’ Time!

[The suits “fully-form” over the bodies of the five, who then charge into battle with their weapons. The five try their signature attacks, but it is no use. The five then insert their Chi Power Keys, and turn them.]

voice of HERO MORPHERS AND HERO CALLER:
Chi Power!

[The Chi Rangers use their weapons and energy powers, but it is no use, and Jokia is able to counter their moves, and overpower them. The five then utilize their Ninja Storm Power Keys, and turn them.]

Ninja Storm Power!

[The Ninja Storm Rangers use their weapons and elemental powers on Jokia, but he is able to overcome them as well. The rangers then utilize their Galaxy Power Keys, and change up into Galaxy Rangers.]

Galaxy Power!

[The rangers use their swords along with their elemental powers, but it also is no use, and are way overpowered. Jokia then goes for his sword.]

JOKIA:
Fire Wave!

[One slash from the sword makes the five fly backward, and are forced all the way out of morph.]

You rangers are no match for me! Your ship, powers, and navigational bird are now mine!

[Jokia teleports up to the galleon.]

INT.-CITY-GALLEON-MAIN ROOM-DAY
[Jokia teleports onto the galleon, frightening Navix as he reverts to his humanoid form, and sits in the captain’s chair. Unbeknownst to Paco, Colin is hiding below deck.]

INT.-CITY-GALLEON-CARGO DECK-DAY
[Colin is hiding in a tall wooden crate. He soon homes out of hiding, and quietly insta-morphs, then inserts his Golden Anchor Key to access his Golden Armor Mode.]

EXT.-OLD QUARRY-DAY
[During a torrential rainstorm, the five crewmen awaken, and recover to their feet. The quintet look upward to see that the galleon has left.]

DeANDRE TAYLOR:
We all need to find a shelter...got to get out of this rain, and wait for Colin.

[The five walk toward a cave opening.]

INT.-CITY-GALLEON-MAIN ROOM-DAY
[Paco wants to take the galleon into space, and to the Free Joker.]

PACO GAMEZ:
Navix! Set a course for outer space. I’ll give you the coordinates to where the Free Joker is.

[Suddenly, the Red Ranger, in his Golden Armor Mode enters the room.]

I thought you were back in that quarry with the others!

COLIN SCOTT:
I teleported aboard as the smoke cleared. You know...destroying Primus was really callous of you!

PACO GAMEZ:
I don’t need your lectures, Colin!

[Paco transforms into Jokia, and swings his sword at the Red Ranger, just as Navix turns the ship around. The Red Ranger then works to take the battle up on the deck.]

EXT.-CITY-GALLEON-TOP DECK-DAY
[Jokia and the Red Ranger engage in a lengthy swordfight on the top deck of the ship.]

INT.-OLD QUARRY-CAVE-DAY
[The quintet recovers, albeit soaking wet and cold]

BROCK CRANSTON:
(worried)
What are we gonna do now!?

[Suddenly, a Hero Morpher rings.]

voice of NAVIX:
Rangers! Colin is sword-fighting Jokia on the top deck of the ship...I have turned around, and we’re heading back!

DeANDRE TAYLOR:
Good job, Navix. We’ll be waiting!

EXT.-CITY-GALLEON-TOP DECK-DAY
[Jokia and the Red Ranger are still sword-fighting on the top deck of the ship. Soon, the other core rangers leap in from all directions as the Silver Ranger drops in from the Crow’s Nest. All five have already upgraded into their Golden Armor Modes. The six armored rangers continue to battle Jokia in a perilous contest before he jumps to the ground below.]

EXT.-OLD QUARRY-DAY
[The six armored rangers repel down the drag chains, and come face-to-face with their nemesis.]

RED HERO RANGER:
You can’t escape, Jokia!

JOKIA:
Watch me!

RED HERO RANGER:
Come on, Paco! Snap out of it! Come with us back to Angel Grove!

JOKIA:
No! That weakling is gone forever! Fire Wave!

[Jokia uses his sword to execute his finisher to overpower the rangers.]

RED HERO RANGER:
Come on, guys! We’re not giving up! Not in a long shot!

ALL RANGERS:
Heroic Aura Wave!

[Golden energy is emitted from the armor on the rangers, an is fired at Jokia with their staffs.]

JOKIA:
What!

[Jokia collapses to his knees while cackling in red and gold energy bolts. Jokia then struggles to his feet, and exudes a fiery red aura, which makes him enlarge. The Red Ranger grabs his Hero Morpher, and presses “5-5-0-1-*” to summon the galleon. The galleon arrives, and drops the drag chains to pick up the core rangers. The Powerzords are deployed, and quickly form the Hero Megazord. The Silver Ranger places the Quantum Time Force Ranger Power Key into the Hero Caller, closes the cover, and presses “0-0-0-*” to summon the Tri-Legend from the future, leaps up into it’s cockpit, and immediately forms the Tri-Legend Megazord. Both then immediately combine with the Nitro Eaglezord to form the Heroic Legend Ultrazord. Jokia uses his sword on the two megazords, and proves to be too powerful, causing sparks in the cockpit. Suddenly, the belt buckles on all six rangers open up.]

ALL RANGERS:
What’s this!?

[The six Morphing Master Jewels are then revealed, then turn into keys. The rangers insert the keys into their consoles, summoning the Mystic Dragon, Delta Runner One, Lion Wildzord, and Minizord. Then, Eagle, and the Tri-Legend separate from the Hero Megazord. A new combination starts to form..]

It’s combining into a new formation!

[The Mystic Dragon pops out of the arm and chest hatches as the legs detach from the megazord as it lands on Eagle, which lands on the Lion Wildzord. The Tri-Legend Megazord bends over, and attaches onto the back of the Lion Wildzord. The Minizord attaches onto the left side as a cannon battery. Delta Runner One then lands on the robot’s left shoulder as the right hand grabs onto the dual-bladed weapon, the Kendo Naginata. Jokia stares at the massive combination.]

Heroic Legend...Gigazord!

RED HERO RANGER:
You give us no choice, Paco!

[The massive robot moves toward Jokia like a chariot. Each ranger turns their keys to execute an individual attack.]

BLUE HERO RANGER:
Kendo Slash!

[The attack is executed from the Kendo Naginata, which slashes at Jokia with an “X” cut.]

PINK HERO RANGER:
Lion’s Roar!

[An intense flame emits from the mouth of the Lion Wildzord, like a flame-thrower, and Jokia is caught up in the explosion.]

GREEN HERO RANGER:
Mini Blast!

[The cannon battery emits an intense blast of energy to strike Jokia.]

YELLOW HERO RANGER:
Delta Gatling!

[A barrage of laser blasts is fired from the two frontal cannons on the Delta Runner on the megazord’s shoulder to blast Jokia.]

SILVER HERO RANGER:
Mystic Fire!

[The Mystic Dragon breathes fire at Jokia, followed by a wing flap to create a tornado of fire to burn him to a crisp.]

RED HERO RANGER:
Nitro Blast!

[The Nitro Eaglezord fires an energy arrow from it’s nose-wing to attack Jokia. The six attacks prove to have worked as Jokia is a bit weakened. The six then turn their keys again for the finisher...a combined attack of the six armaments.]

ALL RANGERS:
Heroic Giga Wave!

[Jokia is struck by the massive blast of energy, and cackles in multi-colored energy bolts. He collapses and explodes. The Red Ranger leaps out of the megazord, and rushes to Paco’s side. He is soon joined by the others, who have their blasters at the ready...just in case. The six see that Paco is now free of his mind control, and wakes up.]

PACO GAMEZ:
Where am I? What’s going on?

COLIN SCOTT:
You were brainwashed by an evil sect of aliens, and turned against the human race.

PACO GAMEZ:
I apologize for whatever problems I may have caused.

COLIN SCOTT:
Join us, and exact your revenge on the Zangyu.

PACO GAMEZ:
I...I can’t. I don’t want to cause any more problems.

[Paco then takes the five orbs from his pocket.]

What are these?

[Paco hands the orbs to Colin, and looks very ashamed. The six crewmen are very happy...they now have all thirty-five powers.]

COLIN SCOTT:
At least, come along for a ride back home, and then you can think things over.

INT.-OUTER SPACE-STAMPEDER-BRIDGE-NIGHT
[The crew locates the empty Free Joker. A Foiler presses a few buttons to attack the abandoned ship with a missile. The glow from the explosion briefly lights up the room.]

Based Upon
Kaizoku Sentai Gokaijaa, Episode #46: “Hero Eligibility (2)”
----------------------------------------------------
INT.-CITY-GALLEON-MAIN ROOM-DAY
[The team is relaxing on a quiet day...until Ninjor arrives on the ship.]

ALL CREWMEN:
(surprised)
Ninjor!?

NINJOR:
Something kind of bothered me when we last met. It seems that you six need to be re-trained.

EXT.-CITY-DAY
[An orange Scallywag with green plant-like spikes, named JIJU, aims a device at various citizens (a truck driver, and a few people on the street included), and blows it like a blow-dart. When everyone is hit, a red energy wave enters the body. Jiju, with a platoon of Foilers, is about to infect more people, when he is blasted by the three crewmen.]

NIKKI BUCHANAN:
Stop!

JIJU:
The rangers! Scurvies!

[Two Scurvies appear, forcing the three crewmen to utilize their morphers and Power Keys.]

ALL CREWMEN:
It’s Morphin’ Time!

[The suits “flash-form” over the three, who then charge in with their weapons, as do the Scurvies and Jiju with Ninjor watching. Soon, the other three rangers rush in.]

NINJOR:
Better late, than never!

RED HERO RANGER:
Yeah, yeah!

JIJU:
Now is the perfect opportunity to get rid of the Power Rangers!

[Jiju uses his device to target the rangers, and is able to infect the Green and Silver Rangers, who have no idea they were infected. Jiju then goes after the Red Ranger as he stands behind a bush...but the Red Ranger uses his cutlass to deflect the shot.]

RED HERO RANGER:
Come out of hiding and quit sneaking around!

[The rangers react along with Ninjor as the Zangyu run off.]

PINK HERO RANGER:
That one was creepy!

[The Red Ranger briefly inspects the blade of his cutlass.]

INT.-CAVE-DAY
[Jiju and eight Foilers gather in front of a crystal ball, and bow to worship the crystal. Jiju begins the ritual.]

JIJU:
Sleeping hearts of darkness, awaken now, and serve me!

EXT.-CITY-DAY
[The “evil in the hearts of people” infected activates. The truck driver is driving down a freeway, and starts to rage.]

TRUCK DRIVER:
Out of my way! The road belongs to me! Move it!

[The truck starts to swerve all over the road, cutting off other traffic. Two pedestrians, a man and a woman start getting angry. A girl even slaps her boyfriend’s cheek, runs off.]

INT.-CITY-GALLEON-MAIN ROOM-DAY
[The crew and Ninjor gather around the table for lunch. The infection in Brock and Kieran takes effect, and the two act differently than usual...DeAndre immediately notices.]

DeANDRE TAYLOR:
What’s wrong!?

[Brock takes some meat off of Colin’s plate, Kieran puts his feet on the table, and both act rude to the others. The two then start fighting with each other as Nikki tries to stop the two, who then take the fight to the city. When Colin, DeAndre, and Keri refuse to follow, Ninjor gets angry.]

NINJOR:
Aren’t you going with her!?

COLIN SCOTT:
She’ll be fine.

NINJOR:
You three cannot be trusted!

[Ninjor leaves the ship to follow. Colin then draws his cutlass at Navix, which surprises her.]

COLIN SCOTT:
I got a job for you.

EXT.-CITY-DAY
[Nikki and Ninjor run through the city, trying to find Brock and Kieran. During their search, the two run across various infected citizens, who are out of control...a man steals a flat-screen television from an electronic store...the woman from earlier uses two spray-paint cans to tag a police car, and is accosted by two police officers. While running, Ninjor is struck by a truck, and is flung away.]

EXT.-CITY-PARK-DAY
[As Nikki assists Ninjor, they spot Brock and Kieran fighting each other in a field. Soon, Brock and Kieran use their morphers and keys to morph into Hero Rangers.]

NINJOR:
Rangers, wait! Let’s talk this out!

[Ninjor rushes to try to stop them. Nikki then uses her morpher and key to morph into the Pink Ranger. Soon, the Green and Silver Rangers are using their weapons on each other. The Pink Ranger and Ninjor try to separate the two, but they struggle.]

INT.-CAVE-DAY
[Jiju knows about the two rangers.]

JIJU:
Yes, you two...keep the fight going!

[Suddenly, the Red, Blue, and Yellow Rangers rush in with their weapons drawn.]

RED HERO RANGER:
I knew that you were behind this chaos!

JIJU:
Of course I am...Foilers, attack!

[The three rangers charge into the battle, with the Red Ranger initially blasting his musket.]

YELLOW HERO RANGER:
Let’ smash that crystal to end all the chaos!

JIJU:
I don’t think so!

[Jiju turns to the crystal, opens his mouth to swallow it.]

The only way to return the people to normal, it to defeat me!

BLUE HERO RANGER:
Not a problem!

[Jiju then blasts the trio with green energy bolts from a device on his forehead to fry them.]

EXT.-CITY-PARK-DAY
[The Green and Silver Rangers continue to battle the Pink Ranger, Ninjor, then each other after overpowering the other two. Ninjor then draws his katana, and is about to battle the two brainwashed rangers.]

PINK HERO RANGER:
No! Let me handle those two on my own. They are not normally like this!

[The Pink Ranger runs in between the two, and tries to reason with them...but is kicked down a grassy hill, and is followed by the two. The Green and Silver Rangers use their weapons on their comrade. When Ninjor tries to help, the Pink Ranger re-asserts her wish.]

No! Don’t interfere! Power Down!

[The Pink Ranger suit vanishes from Nikki’s body, then she walks right into danger as the two rangers try to attack her.]

NIKKI BUCHANAN:
Brock and Kieran! Snap out of it!

[Nikki grabs the cutlass and trident to try to stop her friends, but they overpower, shove her to the ground with their boots. Nikki recovers, but is almost decapitated by the weapons as Ninjor covers his eyes.]

Remember...don’t hold back on my account!

[The Green and Silver Rangers struggle for control, and de-morph (still holding their weapons). The infection tries to take effect again a couple times, but Brock and Kieran try to overcome the infection, which vanishes...and the two collapse in exhaustion, dropping their weapon nearby.]

BROCK CRANSTON AND KIERAN OLIVER:
We’re sorry for the way we acted.

NIKKI BUCHANAN:
No apologies are necessary, guys...it’s just good to have you both back!

NINJOR:
She believed in her friends! Guys, I apologize too. I guess I need to trust humans again.

[Suddenly, Nikki’s morpher rings.]

voice of NAVIX:
Nikki! The others need help! Colin knows about what the Scallywag did!

[Nikki fold up her morpher, and all four rush to help.]

EXT.-OLD QUARRY-DAY
[The Red, Blue, and Yellow Rangers battle the Foilers and Jiju. The trio then utilize their morphers, and Solar Keys to transform into Solar Rangers to use their abilities on the Foilers. The Red Ranger goes to battle Jiju, and all three get zapped by the Scallywag, and are knocked all the way out of morph. The trio recover to their feet to face Jiju and more Foilers...but suddenly get blasted by the others.]

JIJU:
But how!? You two should still be under my control!

KIERAN OLIVER:
Us humans have the ultimate control over our minds! Let’s take him down, guys!

ALL CREWMEN:
(with their morphers and keys)
It’s Morphin’ Time!

[The suits “fully-form” over the six.]

ALL RANGERS:
Heroes Setting Sail For Adventure! Power Rangers, hya!

NINJOR:
(grabbing his katana)
You’re going down, clown!

[Explosions erupt behind the seven. Jiju then summons two Scurvies, who blast, but the Silver Ranger leaps through with his trident, and battles them.]

SILVER HERO RANGER:
You guys handle the Foilers and that loser...these two freaks are mine!

[The Silver Ranger utilizes his Golden Anchor Key to access his Golden Armor Mode, then continues to battle the two Scurvies. The five core rangers decide to use their Ninjetti Keys.]

ALL CORE RANGERS:
Ninjetti!

[The suits “fully-form” over the five. The five use their Ninjetti powers and weapons to use various techniques on the Foilers, to destroy them all.

SILVER HERO RANGER:
Sorry, guys!

[Jiju re-appears behind the Tri-Legend, and strikes it from behind. The Yellow Ranger inserts her S.P.D. Key to activate the megazord’s Delta Mode. The robot executes the Delta Sniper-Full Blast, but Jiju vanishes again.]

PINK HERO RANGER:
That creep is getting on my nerves!

[Jiju re-appears, and attacks both megazords with his sword. A lot of sparks erupt in both cockpits.]

RED HERO RANGER:
We need to change up our strategy.

[Suddenly, the belt buckles on the six open up with the Ninjetti Keys. The rangers insert their keys into the control console, and turn. Nothing immediately happens...but Ninjor suddenly enlarges, and stands in between the two megazords.]

NINJOR:
It is time for me to join you in battle!

[Jiju charges with his sword, as does Ninjor. Jiju performs his vanishing trick again, but Ninjor is ready for him...but is struck. When Ninjor falls backward, he turns into a straw doll. When Jiju investigates, Ninjor comes down to slice Jiju with his katana.]

Go for it, rangers!

‭[The Hero Ranger keys glow, and the rangers grab them, and set them. All three zords are bathed in a white light, making the Monarch Megazord back up. The chest hatches on both megazords open up to reveal beams of light, which forms the Hero Cell, and both zords take hold of it, and insert the cell into Eagle’s driver side holder. All three then start to combine into one massive megazord.]

I’m so sorry about this!

Kieran!

[Keri rushes in to recover the Kieran-doll, and blasts at the Zangyu with her musket. Suddenly, the Zangyu are blasted by the other four rangers, as they repel down the drag-chains from the galleon. The Green Ranger goes to check on Keri and Sara.]

They turned Kieran and some other humans into dolls!

[The Green Ranger rejoins the others when both sides charge into battle. Unfortunately, the battle thrashes the area, including toppling over the Christmas Tree. Keri then rushes in to help the others.]

BIBOO:
Doll Up!

[Biboo accidentally turns two Red Scurvies into dolls, but quickly reverses the process.]

Return!

GREEN HERO RANGER:
(much to Biboo’s chagrin)
So that’s how it’s done!

YELLOW HERO RANGER:
Let’s use the Alien Ranger keys!

[The five insert the keys into their morphers, and turn them to transform into the Alien Rangers, and continue to battle. Dyran pulls out his Dyranmer to enlarge it, and squash the rangers, forcing them to tuck and roll, and back into their Hero Ranger forms. Upon recovering, the five rangers see that Dyran and his forces got away. The team runs off to catch up to the Zangyu force, but the Yellow Ranger decides to hold back when she sees Sara near the fallen Christmas Tree. The Yellow Ranger de-morphs, and Keri approaches the area. Sara is dis-heartened as she looks at the Sage-doll.]

SARA:
It’s all my fault...and now, Christmas is ruined!

KERI SCHMIDT:
Not yet. Can you make a doll like this?

EXT.-CITY-PLAZA-DAY
[The four rangers leap in, and face the four Zangyu. The four charge in with their weapons, but Dyran uses his Dyranmer again to try and swipe at the quartet to force them back.]

BLUE HERO RANGER:
We got to get that wand!

[All eight charge in to melee-battle.[

EXT.-CITY-PARK-PLAYGROUND-DAY
[Keri is handed the doll that Sara made.]

SARA:
I want to go with you...I got Sage into this mess, and I want to help get him out.

[Keri reluctantly agrees.]

EXT.-CITY-PLAZA-DAY
[The battle rages on. Keri then sneaks in behind Biboo, with her target being her wand, and moves into action.]

BIBOO:
Just what do you think you are gonna do? Doll Up!

[Biboo attacks Keri, but she barely gets out of the way, and tosses the “fake” doll into the open.]

Huh?

[Upon Biboo reaching down to pick up the doll, Keri rushes for the wand, but the Scallywag sees what she is up to.]

I don’t think so! Doll Up!

[Biboo finally turns Keri into a doll. The Scallywag saw that the first doll was a fake. The Red Ranger tries to battle Dyran, but instead gets a gut-punch from the Dyranmer. The four recover and face the four Zangyu. Both sides charge into battle, but the Zangyu do not realize that Sara is nearby, holding Keri’s morpher and key. With conviction, Sara inserts the key to morph into the Yellow Hero Ranger, and runs in to grab the wand after kicking Biboo in the rear. The sight of the Yellow Ranger gets the attention of the other four.]

YELLOW HERO RANGER:
That’s for turning everyone including my brother into a doll!

DYRAN:
Dyranmer! Batter up!

[Dyran uses his hammer like a baseball bat to knock the four rangers away, and out of morph. The Yellow Ranger then places the dolls in her possession down, and shouts out the command.]

YELLOW HERO RANGER:
Return!

BIBOO:
Noooooooooo!

[Every doll is turned back into a human. With Sage not seeing his sister, the Yellow Ranger de-morphs to reunite with him, and to return the Hero Morpher and Yellow Hero Ranger Power Key back to Keri. Sara then hands the wand over to Keri, who hands it over to Kieran.]

KIERAN OLIVER:
(as he breaks the wand over his knee)
We’re not your little toys anymore!

[The others rush over to rejoin Keri and Kieran.]

COLIN SCOTT:
Good job! Now...get to safety...it’s time for us to get to work.

[The six utilize their morphers and keys, and transform into Hero Rangers.]

ALL RANGERS:
(posing)
Heroes Setting Sail For Adventure! Power Rangers, hya!

[The two Red Scurvies combine their staffs to send an energy blast to the rangers, but all it causes is sparks. The Yellow and Silver Rangers the rush the enemy, and battle the Red Scurvies. The Red Ranger tosses his cutlass to the Yellow Ranger, as she tosses her musket to him. The Yellow Ranger then perform her “sword yo-yo” maneuver on a Red Scurvy as the Silver Ranger uses his trident on the other. The two soon overpower the two minions. The six rangers decide to change up into various Yellow Rangers (Red>Wild Force, Blue>Morphin, Yellow>Overdrive, Green>Wind, Pink>Star, and Silver>Chi).]

BIBOO:
(surprised)
What!?

DYRAN:
(angered, ordering in the Red Scurvies)
Attack!

[The rangers ready their various weapons and attacks, and charge in. The Overdrive Ranger uses her Drive Claws, followed by the Wind Ranger and his Shadow Dance with his Ninja Sword. The Morphin Ranger uses his Power Daggers, followed by the Star Ranger with her morpher and Star Card for the Rock Rush to produce two boulders to crash into the minions. The Chi Ranger rushes with his staff to slice followed by the Wild Force Ranger leaping up to attack with his claws, and the two Red Scurvies are destroyed. An angry Biboo powers up a wing to sweep at the rangers, striking them. The strike engulfs the six in explosions to knock them back into their Hero Ranger forms. The core team members then utilize their morphers and Battle Ranger Power Keys, and transform into Battle Rangers.]

voice of HERO MORPHER:
Battle Power!

[The core rangers use their powers’ dancing prowess. Another melee battle breaks out. The Red Ranger uses his spear on the general and Scallywag as the Silver Ranger watches. Feeling left out a bit, he gets an idea.]

SILVER HERO RANGER:
Colin! Brock! Can I borrow your Hero Keys?

[The two rangers toss their keys to the Silver Ranger, who concentrates enough to merge the keys, and changes up into the Spirit Hero Ranger. The ranger uses his cutlass and musket on the two enemies, and the two are driven back.]

ALL BATTLE RANGERS:
Battle Sticks! Battle Stick Cannon!

SPIRIT HERO RANGER:
Spirit Blast And Slash!

[The dual attack forces Dyran back. Biboo cackles in red energy bolts before collapsing backwards, and exploding. The rangers then revert to their default Hero Ranger forms just as three pink beams hit Biboo and the two Red Scurvies to revive and enlarge them. The Red Ranger grabs his Hero Morpher, and presses “5-5-0-1-*” to summon the galleon. The galleon arrives, and drops the drag chains to pick up the core rangers. The Powerzords are deployed, and quickly form the Hero Megazord. The Silver Ranger places the Quantum Time Force Ranger Power Key into the Hero Caller, closes the cover, and presses “0-0-0-*” to summon the Tri-Legend from the future, leaps up into it’s cockpit. The Hero Megazord is immediately forms, but the Tri-Legend Drill flies in to attack the Red Scurvies, taking them down.]

ALL CORE RANGERS:
Hero Bomber!

[The megazord fires cannonballs at Biboo, then charges as the Silver Ranger inserts his Green Morphin Ranger key into the control console to form the Tri-Legend Dino, and continues to battle the Red Scurvies, and attacks with a spinning drill tail as the Hero Megazord uses it’s Dual Heroic Sabers on Biboo, who leaps up to kick the megazord in the chest to knock it backward.]

YELLOW HERO RANGER:
She’s getting on my nerves!

[The Yellow Ranger uses her Mystic Key to summon the Mystic Dragon to burn Biboo, who goes down and quickly recovers. The Green Ranger uses his Ninja Storm key to summon Minizord, who throws his clubs, making the Scallywag spark. The Red Ranger then uses his Nitro Defender key to summon the Nitro Eaglezord and cell . The Silver Ranger then inserts his White Dino Ranger key to form the Tri-Legend Megazord. Minizord and Eagle then combine their attacks.]

MINIZORD AND EAGLE:
Ningen Dual Slash!

RED HERO RANGER:
Form the Ultrazord!

‭The chest hatches on both megazords open up to reveal beams of light, which forms the Hero Cell, and both zords take hold of it, and insert the cell into Eagle’s driver side holder. All three then start to combine into one massive megazord.]

‭ALL RANGERS:
‭Heroic Legend...Ultrazord!

‭[The Heroic Legend Ultrazord faces the much shorter Biboo.]

‭Heroic Super Power Punch!

‭[The attacks from the Mystic Dragon, Delta Runner One, Lion Wildzord and Minizord combine with the Ultrazord. Biboo cackles in red energy bolts, and sparks.]

‭BIBOO:
‭It isn’t the most wonderful time of the year!

‭[Biboo collapses and explodes. The Ultrazord then turns around to pose victoriously as the rangers celebrate in the cockpit.]

‭EXT.-CITY-PARK-PLAYGROUND-NIGHT
‭[That night, the crew helps clean up the playground area, and re-trim the Christmas Tree.]

‭SARA:
‭I want to thank you guys again for your help.

‭COLIN SCOTT:
‭It was nothing.

‭SAGE:
‭There’s only one thing missing! Snow!

‭KERI SCHMIDT:
‭I can help take care of that!

‭[Keri takes her morpher, and inserts the White Mystic Ranger key.]

‭WHITE MYSTIC RANGER:
‭Magi Staff! Hero Storm!

‭[Snow starts falling over the city. The crew then politely excuses themselves to head back to the ship for their own party.]

‭INT.-CITY-GALLEON-MAIN ROOM-NIGHT
‭[Upon returning to the ship, Navix tells the team that something is amiss with the key chest.]

‭NAVIX:
‭Guys! The Key Chest is glowing!

‭[The six crewmen all go to investigate. Colin opens the chest allowing the glowing Battle Ranger Power Keys to float upward and flash in the hands of the five core crewmen.]

‭KERI SCHMIDT:
‭I guess we acquired the Battle Ranger powers.

‭[The team looks out the window to see that is it really snowing. Soon, the six turn to see the man in the Santa suit on the ship.]

‭MAN IN SANTA CLAUS SUIT:
‭I am really the former Black Battle Ranger. You rangers saved Christmas...and you have been rewarded. Merry Christmas!

‭COLIN SCOTT:
‭Let’s celebrate!

January Episodes, and upcoming tidbits

NIGHTRANGER INDUSTRIES ANNOUNCES SCHEDULE FOR JANUARY 2012 FOR POWER RANGERS: THE NEXT GENERATION.

FRESNO, CA.-January 5, 2012...NightRanger Industries is releasing the schedule of Power Rangers: The Next Generation summaries for the month of January 2012, and some tidbits for the following couple months, up until the premiere of Power Rangers: Ultratech. Please keep in mind that all information below is always subject to change due to changing source information.

‭JANUARY 7, 2012-
‭63. All-Dolled-Up [based upon Gokaiger #44]
‭It is Christmas Eve. When Keri and Kieran go out for a walk, they meet pair of siblings named Sara and Sage. But Zangyu warrior Biboo suddenly appears and turns humans into dolls, including Kieran! Keri burns with fury at Biboo, who had ruined the children's happy time.

‭*Episode #64 was originally scheduled to be posted this day, but has been moved to the following week so both parts of the episode can be posted together.

‭JANUARY 14, 2012-
‭64. AncientJustice (1)
‭Colin receives a strange call telling him that if he wants the Red Morphin Master Jewel, come to Dubai. But what will happen when the Zangyu double team the rangers?

‭65. AncientJustice (2)
‭The rangers continue dealing with the Zangyu’s two-pronged attack. After defeating Kyatsu and her forces, the rangers go to help Colin, who is battling Dyran and his Dyranmer.

‭JANUARY 21, 2012-
‭66. Ninjor’s-Return [loosely based upon Gokaiger #45-46]
‭The galleon crew returns to the NinjaKon Temple, and meet Ninjor, who decides to move in with the team on the galleon to observe them. Later, the rangers run into the latest Scallywag, Jiju, who has the power magnify bad feelings.

‭JANUARY 28, 2012-
‭67. RebelRescue [loosely based upon Gokaiger #47-48]
‭The final battle between the rangers and Paco begins. After using Primus in surprising strategy, the two final droids, Solareo and Goldra are unleashed onto the rangers.

‭68. The-Lost-Keys
‭Jane Mitchell of Lightspeed Rescue seeks to meet with the galleon crew about something important, but is captured by the Zangyu while on her way. Upon hearing about what is so important, the crew must mount a rescue.

‭Episodes in February will also follow the same pattern (some weeks with one episode, some with two). The month starts out with an “original” two-part episode of “PowerSurge” on February 4th, followed by my adaptations of Gokaiger #49-51 on February 11th through the 25th, then “HomewardBound” on February 25th, which will be a “clip-show.”

‭March will handle the multi-part finale on the 3rd, 10th, and 17th, followed by a two-week hiatus.

‭All statistics will be finalized on March 30, 2012, and the final numbers will be posted to the blog. At that time, a “primer” for Power Rangers: Ultratech will also be posted to the discussion boards and blog with the plot, immediate cast, and character bios. “Ultratech” will premiere on April 7, 2012 on the boards and blog. With “Ultratech,” there will be at least three milestones...Episodes #375, 400, and 425.

‭A board to replace “RangerVision” is also currently being looked at. That board is “Ranger-Board,” (not to be confused with our “flagship" affiliate, “Rangerboard") which is through the Super Sentai Time Capsule website. As of January 4, 2012, they have over 980 members, and will possibly top 1, 000 before the next series’ premiere in April. Even if they are under my “one grand minimum,” I will still probably welcome them in as an affiliate.

‭Everyone on Facebook can also keep up with The N.R.I.O. Network on our very own fan page. Just search “The NRIO Network.” During this past season, updates came at an average of once a week. For the 2012 season, I hope to share more status updates, and you can also post questions to the fan page, and I will answer them.
